The orchid

Free verses, love, and orchids.

By Matt B.Published 3 years ago 1 min read

The Orchid; to grow from ashes

on crops; from life, to live, to suck.

Thought-to-be incarnated thoughts sucked,

but its blossom, reddish, sanguineous,

the most precious one.

Leaving behind an empty tree,

its thinned branches… twigs

partner a miracle.
